In-Brace versus Out-of-Brace Protocol for Radiographic Follow-Up of Patients with Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Retrospective Study

Children, 2022
The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare two standardized protocols for radiological follow-up (in-brace versus out-of-brace radiographs) to study the rate of curve progression over time in surgically treated idiopathic scoliosis (IS ...

Bracing scoliosis: The evolution to CAD/CAM for improved in-brace corrections [PDF]

Hard Tissue, 2013
computer-aided design/computeraided manufacturing braces leads to better in-brace corrections than many cast-made braces, and also better in-brace corrections when comparing to computer-aided design/ computer-aided manufacturing braces as published. Conclusion Symmetric braces are outdated.

Lack of in-brace x-rays in compliant AIS patients wearing full-time TLSO braces associates with failure

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Background In-brace correction and brace compliance with thoraco-lumbo-sacral orthotic (TLSO) braces are associated with successful treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).

Effect of Chêneau style braces on vertebral wedging amongst individuals with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

South African Journal of Physiotherapy, 2021
Background: It is generally accepted that braces can stop curve progression but little evidence exists regarding structural improvement in the spine using spinal bracing.

Predictors of Clinically Meaningful Results of Bracing in a Large Cohort of Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis Reaching the End of Conservative Treatment

Children, 2023
Background: We need good outcome predictors to maximize the treatment efficiency of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The in-brace correction has shown an important predictive effect on brace failure, while the influence of other variables is ...

Scoliosis in-brace curve correction and patient preference of CAD/CAM versus plaster molded TLSOs [PDF]

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2007
Purpose CAD/CAM technology is a newer technique for creating spinal orthoses than standard plaster molded methods. To our knowledge there has been only one previous study of CAD/CAM braces. The purpose of our study was to compare patient preference and in-brace correction of Cobb angle between plaster molded thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSO) and CAD ...

Coronal deformity angular ratio may serve as a valuable parameter to predict in-brace correction in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

The Spine Journal, 2019
In-brace correction (IBC) plays an important role in curve progression of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) under brace treatment. We evaluated the coronal deformity angular ratio (C-DAR) as a potential predictor of IBC. Based on our experience, we postulated that a high C-DAR may result in low IBC.
